Question

Which item does not help prevent electrical accidents?

A. Superconductor

B. Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter

C. Fuse

D. Circuit Breaker

Answer 1

Answer: Hello there!

The fuse, circuit breaker and ground-fault circuit interrupter are things that broke when the current is high enough, cutting the circuit in the process and prevent possible electrical accidents.

A superconductor, for the other hand, is a very good conductor with almost zero resistance, this has nothing to help prevent electrical accidents, it is just a very very good conductor.

Answer 2

Answer: A. Superconductor

Explanation:

Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter , Fuse, Circuit Breaker cause the circuit to break when high amount of current flows through it; thereby protecting any electrical accidents. A superconductor has zero resistance. It gives an easy path for an amount of electricity to flow through it. Thus, it would not prevent electrical accidents.
